Purpose: To investigate the current practices in anatomy teaching at French universities in 2023. Methods: On January 10, 2023, a questionnaire was sent to all members of the official list of the French Medical College of Professors of Anatomy. Each Anatomy centre was asked to complete this online form only once. The questionnaire covered several key themes, including broad questions, dissections practices, "virtual" dissections, teaching methods and teaching staff. Results: The questionnaire was completed by 26/28 anatomy centres. Access to body donor dissection is reported to be mandatory in 15 of the 26 centers (58%), optional in 10 centers (38%), and "tolerated" in one center (4%). Fifteen of 26 centers (58%) reported having a virtual dissection table for teaching anatomy. Concerning the teaching of anatomy via live ultrasound, 10 out of 26 centers (38%) reported providing it. Regarding the teaching methods used for medical students, chalk and board lectures are the most common method, although the intensity of use varies. Most lectures are given with chalk and board in 42% (11/26) of the centers. In about 73% (19/26) of the centers, tablet lectures are used. Regarding anatomy teachers, it was reported that in 24/26 anatomy centres (92%), more than 50% of the courses for medical students are taught by professors holding the chair of anatomy (21/26 professors (81%), 3/26 associate professors (12%)). Conclusion: The present study endeavors to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on anatomy education by offering insights into the current practices in French universities.
